Halloween Gable Box

Today I have a fun Halloween Gable Box to share with you.  

This would be fun to give to a friend full of Halloween candy!

I started by assembling a black Tall Gable Box die cut from Creative Cuts and More with killer white Tacky Tape.

I embossed a panel of Papaya core-dinations card stock with my Sizzix Pocket Watches embossing folder.  I used my Core-dinations sanding block to knock off the color on the raised parts.  Then I sponged on Black Soot Distress ink before adhering the papaya panel to the box.

I used Beacon Zip Dry paper glue to glue on Trick or Treat Color Fragments.

I stamped the Cling Halloween Magic image on a piece of smooth white cardstock and colored it with my Spectrum Noir Markers. 

 Hair: TN7-TN5-TN3-TN2

Dress: TN3-GB7-GB4-CT3-CT2

Greys: BG6-BG4-BG2

 Skin: TN2-TN1-EB1

and...I used some detail gold embossing powder on the watch and gear.

The fabulous ribbon is May Arts!

These Tall Gable Boxes are a terrific way to give candy, a gift card, or any small gift.  And they are so fun to decorate!

Thanks for stopping by!

naughty. nice. or not sure

Hello, it is Noelle posting today and it is already 11:00.  Blogger decided to crash my computer every time I tried to log on.  FYI: Un-instaling Google Toolbar has me back in action.

So this will be short!

I used the Four Pane Window A7 Scallop Card and I always think it is a fun card to make.  That giant gingham is by Bo Bunny and that is what started the card.  I used stickles and a Unity stamp set called naughty. nice. not sure.  

My problems with this card didn't start with Blogger it started with the paper!  LOL  I glued it on upside down.  All the trees were upside down so I had to peel it off and flip it over and glue it again and then I saw the light green trees so I flipped it over and saw the dark green trees.  Then I promptly decided this is the worst paper I have ever worked with and left it as it LOL  Whoever gets this card if they say the paper is upside down isn't it I will belly ache laugh and answer honestly, I have no stinkin' idea!  LOL

Thank you for stopping by today!!

I hope you are having a terrific week!

Today I made a card using a Cottage Cutz die, Blue Bird, from Creative Cuts and More.

The sentiment is Flower Path by Stampendous.

The ribbon is May Arts.

I added a little pebbles chalk to  to the blue bird to add some dimension to it.

I embossed the sentiment with Stampendous Embossing Powder.

The cottage cutz die cuts are a fabulous way to  add texture and interest to your projects.

I hope you are inspired by my card!

Have a great rest of the week!

A Deer Friend

Today I have another Creative Cuts and More project to share.

I started with a Arch Window A6 Card die cut from Neenah White cardstock.

The Deer is Cottage Cutz die,  Elegant Reindeer.
I added a Small Pine Tree and a Large Pine Tree to complete the scene.

I don't remember who made the cloud paper but lots of companies make cloud paper so you should have no trouble finding some.

The sentiment is from an AmyR sentiment stamp set.
I hope you enjoyed today's quick and easy project!

Tuxedo Favor Box!

Hello, it is Noelle posting today!!

One of CC&M's best selling dies is the Dress & Tuxedo Favor Box Set.  I have never made one!  *gasp*

 I have always wanted to make one but have never had a wedding opportunity so I decided to twist it up a little!!

I gave Mr Tux a date an {ippity} with from Halloween Greetings!

 

They are ready for anything Halloween brings!  The tux is a box that requires no tape or glue!!  Can it get any easier?  I used the greeting but when I was attaching it I thought this would make a perfect place setting!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!!

so beautiful

hello!!  today i have a card that started out as a wedding type card, but ended up what could be an "anytime" card.  i used the base, dress window square scallop, and stamped the flowers along the bottom using a stamp from {ippity}.  then i added some patterned paper behind the dress cut out.

stamped inside is a sentiment from unity, added some prima flowers and there you have it!

have a good weekend and hope you can spend some time getting crafty!

Fish Bowl Card

Today I have a fun birthday wishes Fishbowl shape card for you to see.
I used a stamp set out of my stash that my sister gave me which I have no idea of the brand and the swirl embossing folder from sizzix for the water. I just love how the one fish is holding balloons and the other one a cupcake. What a fun card for a sweet child or fun adult to receive for their birthday.

enjoy!

Hallowee Sliding Pop Up Card

I have a fun card that I made with a Sliding Pop Up Card from Creative Cuts and More!

These cards look difficult but with the pre cut die from Creative Cuts and More they are really pretty easy to put together and all your friends will be so impressed!

I can't find the picture I took of it flat and ready to mail but here it is as you begin to pull on the ribbon and it slides open.

Here's How it looks from the front when it is open all the way.

The Cling Scared Cat Kiddo image from Stampendous comes just like you see the main image.  

 To create the border I stamped just the pumpkin part of the stamp with VersaMark ink and embossed with Paprika Embossing Powder from the Scenic Selection Embossing Kit.  then I added a little color to the pumpkins with my chalks.

The words are from the Happy Messages Clear Stamp Set by Stampendous and were embossed with Detail Black Embossing Powder.

There are lots of great 3D type card dies available at Creative Cuts and More.

They make you look like a pro with out all the stress!
